Description
Celestina handbag - a compact classic for the city
Italian aesthetics in everyday life.
The Celestina proves that a compact handbag doesn't have to mean compromising on storage space. Crafted from high-quality, vegetable-tanned leather, it combines classic lines with modern everyday practicality. Whether as a city bag or shoulder bag, it impresses with its versatility and a charmingly elegant look that suits every occasion.
Well-thought-out layout
Compact dimensions, but surprisingly large volume.
▪ Space miracle: The spacious main compartment makes optimal use of the bag's depth (16 cm), so that wallet, cosmetics and keys can be comfortably stored.
▪ Security: Two integrated side zip pockets keep valuables discreetly and securely locked away.
▪ Interior: The lightweight textile lining ensures clarity, protects the contents and underlines the high-quality workmanship.
Crafts from Tuscany
Like all bupell models, the Celestina is handcrafted in Italy. We use only vegetable-tanned leather (certified with the "Pelle Conciata al Vegetale" seal). This process avoids toxic chemicals and allows the material to breathe and retain its natural structure. An investment in durability and sustainability.

Care & Patina
Leather that lives with you.
Because we avoid artificial sealants, this vegetable-tanned leather is open-pored and breathable. Through sunlight, use, and touch, it develops a distinctive, darker patina. This makes your bag truly unique.
Our care tips:
- Scratches: Small scratches are part of the leather's character. They can often be easily rubbed away with your thumb and a little pressure, as the natural oils in the leather are distributed.
- Care: The leather is robust, but benefits from a little conditioning once or twice a year. Use a colorless leather grease or balm (e.g., beeswax-based) sparingly to keep it supple.

Honest leather. Real values.
bupell stands for conscious consumption and a clear stance against short-lived mass-produced goods. Our bags are made of vegetable-tanned leather – a material that takes longer to process, but is all the more durable. Tanning is carried out exclusively with plant extracts and takes several weeks. This traditional method from Tuscany is not only particularly environmentally friendly , but also gives the leather a distinctive surface. Each bag is handcrafted in Italian workshops – with care, experience, and high standards of quality. This creates long-lasting companions.
